Casual Monday: Dead Rising Edition

QP blogger Shawn Annable recently received his rental copy of Dead Rising (after nine days of waiting) and boy were we excited to experience the terrible save system. Finding myself thirsting for more zombie killing mayhem, this time without botched save systems and impossible-to-rescue survivors, I turned to the world of flash. It probably doesn't hurt that it's Monday, and thus time for another installment of 'Casual Monday.'

This week we bring you The Last Stand, courtesy of Armor Games, wherein you are charged with fighting off zombies while they endlessly barrage your barricade. Though the details on the game boasts 11 weapons and 20 days & nights of gameplay, I think you may be hard pressed to experience all of that in your first playthrough. The game is easily accessible, has a pretty decent story and some strong play mechanics -- it even has some light tactical rpg stuff thrown in for good measure. The beauty is in the details, people. Though not quite as addicting as certain spinning black circles, The Last Stand will certainly have you cursing those cheating bastard zombies.....your words, not mine.
